Cheers Patrick! :thumbup:

There are very few around. I understand that both the Reverso Chronograph and the Reverso Gran Sport Chronograph (which is the one I have) were produced as part of the JLC response to the quartz crisis, to demonstrate their prowess in movement design and construction.

I had been tempted over the years by the normal Reverso Gran Sport, but had not previously found the chronograph version.

There are a couple of decent articles about the watch on the internet, including this one from WatchProSite.

Yep to me as a JLC fan it’s certainly a cool watch. Perhaps the coolest aspect being that I was able to fund the purchase of both the JLC and the BB58 (that is sitting in the ADs safe to be picked up on my birthday mid February) from the sale of a Speedmaster. Bargain! :D

Thanks for posting that link, fascinating read. The movement looks superb, a great rare original watch to own.

That sounds like a good deal you have done to trade a Speedy (hopefully not your lovely Speedy Tuesday!) for these two and not long to wait now for the birthday BB58 :)

^^^^ Yep it was the Speedy Tuesday that went. Whilst I thought it was a lovely watch, I decided one Speedy is enough and I was never likely to sell my standard Moonwatch, as I bought it when I retired.

To get the stunning reverso and the superb BB58 for a speedie is very good business indeed imho. Bet your looking forward to your birthday now!

Thats rather nice. Theres something that really attracts me to an all white watch with a little colour accenting- although i'm not sure my Edifice or Nite Icon is quite on the standard of yours?
